There Can not be a Positive Existance Without a Positive Purpose

[Mish]

Maybe it was one of those Republican party designed tests to trick you into being conservative

Did they have questions like:

"Do you think terrorism is bad"?

[misombra]

so what is your stance on prostitution?

[RSK]

i'm against prostitution...


lol, Mish........maybe!

[misombra]

i just think it's interesting that you don't consider prostitution to be on par with your average, run of the mill crime. unless you were kidding. you were kidding, right?

[Mish]

so what is your stance on prostitution?

I think by criminalizing prostitution it just gets pushed into the world of underground without any signs of elimination or even reduction. An underground where testing methods are questionable and the character types involved are worrying. I don't like prostitution, but this "world's oldest proffesion" will still exist whether I like it or not. The biggest worry I think is the spread of diseases from poorly ran and outlawed operations.

P.S. I realize many people will have many different opinions about this, so I will just agree to disagree with anyone who disagrees in advance (By the way, prostitution is not illegal in Australia - It's legal with restrictions)

P.P.S Also, the consideration I posted is Chris Rock's

btw, rsk:

Traveling in a fried-out combie
On a hippie trail, head full of zombie
I met a strange lady, she made me nervous
She took me in and gave me breakfast
And she said,

Do you come from a land down under?
Where women glow and men plunder?
Can’t you hear, can’t you hear the thunder?
You better run, you better take cover.

(men at work - down under)

HAHAHAHhahahah!

but this is my favourite part of the song:

Buying bread from a man in Brussels
He was six foot four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich

[alice]

yeah, it's my favourite part, too! (especially the little break before "sandwich")

i took one of those online tests to see if i'm more conservative or liberal...

...i thought i was (and wanted to be) liberal, but according to the online test, i'm conservative

Sadly, despite our best efforts not to, most of us eventually turn into our parents.

HAHA! that's a nice one, i like it!

...in fact, i just got off the phone with my dad, and at the end of the conversation, he said,

i love ya son! i can tell he was smiling on the other end of the phone, because he Sounded like he was, the tone of his voice, if you know what i mean....


i don't really tell my dad how much i love him, so it felt good to tell him, i love you to


nevertheless, it's probably true whaywardj!

I find it very interesting how regulars are formed on this site. It appears that regulars here comprise of the people who have a genuine desire to do good and give a good advise to help a fellow human being in need. Even the most Cynical of us appear to have good intentions to others and to the new members who come here for advise. And likewise the ones with negative energy don't appear to last here long at all.

If only there was a way to harvest all this positive energy and make it into a tool to bring about positive change, what a powerful energy that would be
